Before you move to England

I know how hard it is to prepare yourself and your family for moving to move to a foreign country. I thought I would put the information together so that you can be more prepared. This is a brief overview but please look at my other pages for more information.

So you are coming to England! You are so lucky to be able to have the opportunity to live in Great Britain! I hope that I can help you and your family enjoy the “English” experience.
